Will Your 2008 Tax Rebate Make a Difference?
Yes, donating a portion of this unexpected discretionary income as a charitable gift to Mercy Foundation can change lives!
Making a charitable donation with your rebate is a stimulus for change right here in our local economy. Your gift will increase direct services to those in need through Mercy’s programs of distinction providing care for the poor and the elderly, education, affordable housing, and healthcare. Please know that your gift will be used where the need is greatest.
You have the confidence in knowing that your gift has the maximum impact, because 100% of every dollar goes directly to program. There are no administrative overhead costs paid from your donation as with other worthy community benefit organizations. Why? Mercy Foundation has an operating grant which enables
100% of your gift to directly impact the lives of those in need
.
And don’t forget, your tax rebate check is taxable income for 2008 income reporting purposes.
So YES…not only will a donation from your rebate check have the double impact of changing lives and stimulating our local economy, it may provide you with a charitable deduction (kindly check with your tax consultant) for the current tax year.
